- SoloHill® Microcarriers support cost-efficient scale-up of cell culture, viral vector, and cell therapy manufacturing. These polystyrene solid-core microcarriers have a smooth surface and high surface area for reliable cell attachment, robust expansion, and efficient cell and virus harvesting.
- Manufactured in controlled, non-classified cleanrooms, SoloHill® microcarriers undergo lot-specific biocompatibility testing (cell attachment, growth, and viability) to ensure consistent, scalable, and regulatory-ready performance.
- Microcarriers with a range of surface chemistries is provided in the SoloHill® Microcarrier Starter Kit to optimize cell–microcarrier interactions across diverse applications:
Plastic: Animal component-free, cross-linked polystyrene - Established solution for routine vaccine processes utilizing, e.g., Vero or HEK cell line.
Plastic Plus: Animal component-free, cross-linked polystyrene, cationic-charged - Improves attachment for sensitive or weakly adherent cells, including MSCs.
Star-Plus: Animal component-free, cross-linked polystyrene, cationic-charged - Supports attachment of high-density, fast-growing Vero, or primary and stem cells.
Hillex® II: Animal component-free, modified polystyrene, cationic-charged - Strongly adherent surface for Vero, Porcine SK-RST, or other difficult-to-attach, fragile cell lines.
Collagen: Cross-linked polystyrene coated with collagen - Promotes rapid attachment and growth of stem cells, such as iPSCs and MSCs.
Fact III: Fast attachment collagen-treated (FACT) polystyrene, cationic-charged - Advanced designed to improve attachment and growth of PSCs, MSCs, and fragile lines.
